MONROE -- A Maine woman had sex with a 15-year-old Monroe boy she met playing a war-themed online video game, police said Tuesday.

Cassandra Grant, 22, met the boy, who was then 14, in March 2011 while playing "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare," and developed a relationship with him through webcam, texting and phone calls, according to a news release by Monroe Police Lt. Brian McCauley.

Grant was 21 when she first met the Monroe teen.

In December, Grant met the now 15-year-old and they had sex, police said.

The relationship was uncovered by the boy's parents after the meeting, and they reported it to police, McCauley said.

State police in Maine seized Grant's Sony Playstation 3 gaming system and cell phone as part of the investigation.

Grant, of Rockland, Maine, turned herself in to Monroe police Monday and was released after posting $10,000.

She was charged with second-degree assault and risk of injury to a minor and is scheduled to appear in Bridgeport Superior Court March 21.
